PSAT Writing and Language Question 534: Answer and Explanation
Question: 534
Which of the following is most consistent with the tone and style of the passage as a whole?
- A. NO CHANGE
- B. Nope, sulfur isn’t cutting it either.
- C. If you considered picking sulfur, that too would be a deleterious inclination.
- D. Sulfur ain’t right, too.
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
(B) First, recognize tone: it is very casual, almost like an informal conversation. Choices (A) and (C) are far too formal. Choice (D) is incorrect, as one would say "sulfur ain't right, either" as opposed to "sulfur ain't right, too." Choice (B) is both informal and without enormous grammatical flaws.
